This is a dangerous setting. Your Imail server will be hijacked by a 
spammer and/or ORBS or MAPS will blacklist you.  It should be "relay 
for addresses" to be safe.

>Allow remote mail to local groups are checked.
>Allow remote view of local groups are checked.
>Refuse NULL <> Sender are checked.

This is strictly RFC illegal since it will interfere will bounces 
from postmaster.

>Check valid sender are checked.
>Auto deny possible hack attempts are checked.
>All other options are unchecked.

the important one : UNcheck "Disable SMTP AUTH"

>accept.txt list contains the addresss from the sender.

this doesn't work with "relay for addresses"

yep, not a real friendly server:

# telnet bgsys.com 25
Trying 207.158.202.110...
Connected to bgsys.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
572 Relay not authorized
Connection closed by foreign host.

afaic, the latter.

>The support from rapidsite means, that the problem is on my mailserver, but

rapidsite support is wrong.

5xx is fatal error, do not try to resend, the text "Relay not 
authorized" is what counts

Try to contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] and see what's going on over there.
